Best Throwables
Grenade ($3K) – Simple, effective, and loud. Just throw, wait a second, and boom. Great for clearing enemies or ruining someone’s day.
Explosive Mine ($3K) – Step on it, and it’s game over. Has a warning beep, but let’s be honest—no one listens to those.
Zero Gravity Orb ($44K-46K) – Turns an area into a floating circus. Use it to trap enemies, create weird physics, or just make your teammates question their life choices.
Best Drones
Recharge Drone ($4K-5K) – Keeps your electronics working. Cheap and useful—unlike some of your other spending habits.
Indestructible Drone ($28K) – Slap this on a valuable item, and suddenly it's immune to destruction. Perfect for when things get hectic.
Best Miscellaneous
Valuable Tracker ($15K) – Finds the most expensive loot. If you want to be rich, this is a must.
C.A.R.T. ($41K-45K) – Carry more loot, make more money. Simple math.
Rubber Duck ($16K) – It’s an explosive duck. That bounces. If that doesn’t sound fun, you’re playing the wrong game.
Best Weapons
Shotgun ($92K) – Unlimited ammo, high damage, massive recoil. If you can handle it, this is top-tier firepower.
Sledge Hammer ($44K-48K) – Big, slow, and devastating. If you like sending things flying, this is your weapon.
Frying Pan ($24K-27K) – Smacks things really well. Not fancy, but effective.
Best Upgrades
Sprint Speed Upgrade ($6K-8K) – Move faster, live longer. Perfect for escaping bad situations.
Strength Upgrade ($6K-8K) – Carry heavier stuff without slowing down. More loot, more profit.
Range Upgrade ($6K-8K) – Lets you grab items from farther away. Less effort, more efficiency.
Final Blurb
If you’re looking to dominate R.E.P.O., these are the best items to buy. Some help you make more money, some keep you alive, and some just make the game more fun (or chaotic). Spend wisely, and try not to explode yourself.
